Hollywood Rhapsody

"Amazing!" Leonardo and Jason exclaimed in surprise without watching the DV interview at all, because Sarah's performance progress is so amazing.

"It's just one night, Sarah, how did you do it?" Leonardo looked at Sarah from head to toe, and couldn't believe it. "How can there be such a big improvement? Your performance is the same as yesterday's." You are different, Sarah, no, should I call you Sarah? Are you the same Sarah from yesterday? Actually, you have a twin sister, right?"

Sarah was amused by Leonardo's surprised eyes and exaggerated admiration. At this time, Jason had put the video tape into the projector. In the video, Sarah's performance was almost perfect. It is vivid and vivid, even beyond the director Jason's vision.

"The waist rubbing action when I wake up is amazing, and the irritated and regretful moan." Jason quickly wrote something in his notebook, excited by Sarah's performance, "And and, the last one The action of biting her lip entangled, the character's psychology is plump at once. Seeing that the person she is sleeping with is the most handsome man in the school, and even the boyfriend of the deadly enemy. At this moment, is she more irritable or more dark? "

"Your performance overwhelmed me, how is this possible? Those small details made me unable to take my eyes off you even for a second. It was great before I woke up, but after I was kicked by you After waking up, your attractiveness has not diminished in the slightest, just like a powerful magnet, in the performance of this scene, almost every pore of your body is full of drama." Leonardo put his hand on his forehead while talking, Comb the broken hair back, "Sarah, it's incredible, I was still comforting you last night, Jason and I were still discussing how to help you find the feeling this morning, but now... you actually made me feel pressure!"

"WOW...I put pressure on you?" Sarah made a movement of picking her ears, obviously feeling that Leonardo's praise was too exaggerated.

"Tell me, what did you do last night?" Jason was already scratching his heart and lungs with curiosity.

"Last night? I dreamed that I was drinking tea with Katharine Hepburn. She said that I am very talented and that I will surpass her in future achievements." Sarah blinked innocently, and what she said made Jason and Leonard How direct and overwhelming, the supercilious eyes can roll to the ceiling.

"We should make up a decent story, surpassing Katharine Hepburn? Not to mention anything else, just four Oscar statuettes and twelve nominations are enough for all actors to catch up." Leonardo folded his arms to Sarah The answer that pulled the train with his mouth full was very dissatisfied.

Jason also shared the same hatred.

"Okay, okay, to be honest this time, I just received a call from my home planet last night, and I went back to Mars to upgrade the main board of the performance, and now my performance skills are the latest version... No, no, don't pinch me face... Hahaha, don’t, as a gentleman, how can you squeak me! Stop, itch. Dead!” Sarah lied enthusiastically, but was suppressed by Leonardo’s unbearable force.

She fell limply on the sofa, with tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, out of breath, she raised her hands and begged for mercy, "To tell the truth, this time it's the truth. I rehearsed in front of the mirror all night last night."

"I don't believe it, is it the magical mirror in fairy tales? If a person can make such unbelievable progress by practicing in front of the mirror, I would have won the Oscar winner a long time ago." Leonardo pursed his lips and held back his smile, making a gesture To torture Sarah.

"Really, I didn't lie to you. It took me a whole night to practice three scenes, and we can all go through it in a while." Sarah grabbed Leonardo's hand that was about to kill, and at the same time tried to make her eyes look clearer. Pure and innocent, "Look at my sincere eyes, I'm absolutely telling the truth, and you will soon find out that I'm still a mess in other scenes except those three."

Leonardo got up slightly in doubt, but when Sarah finally let go of his vigilance, he laughed and attacked suddenly, and gave Sarah a pass to be satisfied.Sarah looked at Leonardo who turned around and gave Jason a high-five. After being humiliated, she dared not resist and could only cowardly bite the corner of the quilt. She thought tearfully—"Those emotions yesterday were all Illusion, right? Leonardo DiCaprio must be the worst, worst and most ungentleman man in the world! No one!"

No matter how much Sarah slandered, Leonardo and Jason didn't believe it, an hour later, the three of them sat in front of the TV again, you look at me, I look at you, but they were all shocked by the effect of the scene.Leonardo and Jason naturally believed Sarah's words. The three perfect performances were in stark contrast to the obviously rough fourth and fifth paragraphs. One cannot ignore—

Is it true that someone has made such rapid progress only by practicing in front of the mirror, even without other people playing against each other?

But Sarah's shock was because of Leonardo's performance. This guy actually deliberately restrained his acting skills in the first part of the co-star, deliberately letting her in!

This is probably part of the reason why Sarah performed against Leon, and when Leon was fully engaged in the performance, and even inspired by Sarah, their performances were obviously more exciting, and Leon's characterization was fresh. The aura is almost overwhelming.

What a shocking discovery!Sarah felt Leon's caring at the beginning, but at the same time, she was jealous of Leon's talent. Some people were born for acting, and the talent lurking in their blood made ordinary people go crazy with jealousy!

Fortunately, Sarah doesn't hate Leon because of this, and she can't help being proud of Leonardo. The remaining "idol plot" in her heart makes her always sincerely hope that Leon can get better, and he deserves it. better one.What's more, her strong heart will not be discouraged by this at all. Instead, she has a faint urge to compete. A cub slowly opens its eyes in her heart, growling eagerly, wanting to compete with the strong lion king in front of her.

Comparing acting skills with Leonardo?What an attractive challenge, and Sarah feels that she may not be impossible to win. Although it may take a lot of time and energy, she is looking forward to it and has confidence!Because she is sure that she is indeed improving - her performance in the fourth and fifth scenes is remarkable, although it cannot be compared with the best performances in the first three scenes carefully, but it is more stiff than yesterday's hanging puppet Stronger than 01:30 points.This is not only because she overcame the nervousness when facing Leonardo, but also because she has created a vivid character model in her heart, just like laying the foundation when building a house, and her performance is finally no longer rootless Duckweed, based on the setting and understanding of the character model, she was able to interpret the character more solidly, with flesh and blood, and is no longer just an erratic silhouette or a patchwork imitation.

"It's unscientific!" After playing with Sarah five or six times unbelievingly, Leonardo couldn't tell where Sarah had improved, but he had to admit that every time he played with Sarah, he felt All are different.

And when the fourth scene was finally conquered by the two, Jason analyzed and compared each of Sarah's performances, while pressing the pause button from time to time to point out the differences in details: "Your performance is like a piece that only has a rough human shape at the beginning." The plasticine for the outline, every time you try it will make the outline of the clay figurine more distinct, until finally you portray the facial features, adjust the clothes, and even perfect the eyes, mouth corners, and eyelashes. This process can be traced, as long as you are careful enough Figure out where you improve each time."

"This kind of process of contemplating the performance is obviously not the experience school or the method school. Your progress is not a random subconscious reaction. Instead, you have a mold in your heart, or a runway. You correct the deviated track bit by bit. This kind of manipulation and design is closer to expressionism." Leonardo recently read a lot of related books in order to improve his acting skills and performance quality, so he gave an evaluation without thinking at this time, but soon he shook his head and said, "But the look in your eyes when you look at me is real. Your demeanor and emotions are not staged, but the true emotions that exist in your heart... This kind of interpretation should belong to the experiential school..."

"What you're saying sounds like academic research...whatever, it seems to me that acting factions are an academic theory. They are like different single elements that can be combined to form more attractive and ever-changing compounds. So few actors come from Only one way of acting is used from beginning to end... But whatever, a black cat and a white cat can catch mice is a good cat, I only care about whether the effect on the final screen is OK." Sarah listened to the less than 24-year-old Leonardo analyzed performances in such an academic tone, and he couldn't help but think of this man who plunged into method performances in his previous life and never looked back.

There is nothing wrong with method-style acting, and Leonardo’s spirit of pursuing superb acting skills is not wrong, but Sarah pursed her lips, and a voice in her heart urged her to say something.She is not a major in acting, and she is not a master of theory, but from the perspective of an audience, she can also see that Leonardo seems to have entered a misunderstanding in his later performances, and sometimes he obviously used too much force.

How can this be avoided?Sarah didn't feel qualified to answer the question in her seniority, but that didn't stop her from offering a little suggestion, a little hint.So Sarah dragged the timeline of the video, pointed to the part of Leonardo's performance and said softly: "Did you find it? I am indeed constantly improving in terms of details, but compared with your performance, there is still something lacking." .”

"What?" Leonardo raised his eyebrows, as if looking forward to Sarah's answer.

"Aura, I don't have the aura that you are born with when you perform. This is definitely a talent bestowed on you by the gods. Leon, I'm so jealous of you." Sarah wrinkled her nose at Leonardo, feeling quite emotional Dao, "For me, performance is a project, a program code, a flawed photo, I can use different means to improve it, improve it, repair it, but I can't give it a soul."

"No, no, I think your performance is very good, where is there no soul?" Jason thought that Sarah was too modest.

"I mean, it's impossible to bring the character to life like Leon..." Sarah tried to choose words, but in the end she shrugged and said helplessly: "Well, the aura is too mysterious, I can't use words Describe it, but it is undeniable that it does exist, and Leon's performance is particularly attractive because of this aura, so I say he got the gift of God, and I can only try to make up for it with mathematical calculations Insufficient talent."

"Aura..." Leonardo looked at himself in the video thoughtfully, but soon he looked back, smiled and hugged Sarah's shoulders and squeezed his eyes, "Sarah, I doubt you My compliments, these claims about acting talent, are all because of the unbelievable 'idol plot'."

Sarah's shoulders slumped when she heard the words, and she felt that what she had said just now was probably in vain. She had a wooden face, her lips were tightly pressed, and she chose to remain silent on the topic of "idol plot".

Seeing this, Leonardo just nodded Sarah's little nose amusedly, and continued to say to himself: "In my opinion, your performance is also very exciting. Who said you have no acting talent? No, people with eyes I can see your talent, at least I have never met an actor who can be reborn overnight like you, and I have never seen any actor who can be traced and perfected again and again in less than half an hour The acting, honestly, watching you figure out the character is like watching a flower slowly bloom in front of your eyes... mesmerizing... amazing..."

Leonardo's eyes seemed to be able to melt the infinitely gentle blue sea water. Sarah had the illusion that she was going to be drowned in it. She was clearly analyzing her acting skills, right?Why is her heart beating so fast?As if hearing the most affectionate confession in the world?It is more touching than Joseph's thousand and ten thousand lines of true feelings, and more beautiful than Shakespeare's sonnets.

"CUT! Leon, your eyes are too much, this scene doesn't need you to be so affectionate, can you restrain yourself a little?"

A week later, on the set of "Sarah", Jason yelled at Leonardo while holding his forehead——

"Although we all know that you and Sarah will eventually become a couple, but brother, you are still someone else's boyfriend in this masquerade scene! Please restrain yourself, OK?"

The author has something to say: When the competitive Leonardo meets the equally unyielding Sarah...

Dailin himself likes this feeling of stimulating each other's potential and competing for mutual progress.
